...fiber levels are measured is, unfortunately, enormously time-consuming. It requires the use of a complex air pumping device which, attached to a worker's belt, draws air through a hose connected to a filter pinned to his lapel. But even if measurement is taken over a two or three-hour period, it may not reflect the full extent of contamination, since the most dense exposure may occur only once a day or less when the substance is poured from shipping sacks into mixing bins, for example, generating huge plumes of dust...
...committee staff in the six months that it has probed 41 allegations of wrongdoing-including obstruction of justice and complicity in the Watergate cover-up?by Nixon.

There was nothing this year to equal the spectacular flame-out that Marlon Brando arranged in 1973, but a dedicated Oscar addict could pass out a few prizes...
...blue ink, the title Absalom, Absalom!. He underlined it twice and dated the sheet in the upper left hand corner." He then describes two false starts set at Harvard. So far, very interesting. After a plot analysis of the first chapter, Blotner breaks to tell us about a three-hour flying practice in Memphis. Then he returns to the book to analyze chapter two, switches back to the real world for a discussion of Oxford politics and two hours of flying, then back to the typing of chapter two and an analysis of chapter three. The only value of such...
